My Study of Optical Activity - From the Distant Past to the Present with Stops in-Between (2015)

unapi

Physical organic studies encompass a variety of subjects. Our work included studies of small ring compounds where the higher energies lead to increased reactivity, studies of the mechanisms of reactions including oxidations, the application of ab initio theoretical calculations to studies of reactivity and properties, as well as spectroscopic studies. More recent work has concentrated on the relationship between structure and conformations on specific rotations.
